I had a similar problem once on an outboard motor. It turned out to be some worn thin insulation where the points are mounted. There was no ground when checking with the meter, but as soon as the magneto put out a few thousand volts it arced through and lost almost all of the spark. I'd check everything along the high voltage circuit from magneto to plug and replace anything that looks even a little suspect.
